Creative Game for Kids

Promoting Active Kids with Creative Games

We are LOVING our Kids Play blogger series where Moms all across the country are talking about the games they played as kids and what their family's now love to play.

Heather Johnson of FamilyVolley.com is giving the lowdown on a kid favorite,' "Fill the Cup" - check out an excerpt of her Family Fun Friday post and read the entire piece HERE.

It has been a while since we have had a Family Fun Friday. But with school out, it is time for some fun and some new ideas, Don't you think?

In honor of the crazy hot temperatures that are hitting here in Utah today, (they say it will hit 99 degrees. Yikes!) This game is going to help your family get active, and get outside and cool off. And, laugh a lot in the process. It is normal when kids get out of school, to find them in front of technology a lot. Tame the technology and encourage your kids to play outside for at least 60 minutes a day. This game, and the water fight that will most likely follow, will keep them entertained for at least an hour.

This game would be perfect for children's birthday parties too. Another tip, I like to get my mirrors, pitchers, and cups at the dollar store. That way you can get as many as you need, without breaking the bank.
